About this property

Broompark, countryside in the city, Liberton, Edinburgh

Spacious modern semi-detached house in idyllic country-park location less then 5km from Edinburgh castle, the Royal Mile and Edinburgh city centre (sleeps 1-8). Free private parking. Excellent walks straight from the front door with panoramic views across Edinburgh towards the Firth of Forth.

This bright, well-appointed semi-detached house offers spacious accommodation comprising a living room, dining room, kitchen and toilet downstairs, with three bedrooms, en-suite shower room and a family bathroom upstairs. And, there are private parking spaces for 2-3 cars. The property is best suited for guests who are travelling by car.

There are about 6 steps to the front door from the parking area. As you enter the house, the dining room (with seating for 8) is to the right, and this leads through an archway to the spacious living room with French doors to a south-facing patio (a real sun trap in summer). The living room has a large flat-screen TV/DVD with the full range of freeview channels, and an electric coal-effect fire. A barbeque is available in the summer months. The kitchen is to the left of the front door. There is also a downstairs toilet.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms, en-suite shower and a family bathroom:

- a family bedroom with king-size double bed, sitting area and an en-suite shower and toilet; the sitting area has a TV and a sofabed
- a second family bedroom with a double bed, a single bed & a wash-hand basin
- a third bedroom with a double bed
- a family bathroom with bathtub, shower over the bathtub and toilet
- all three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes.

The house has gas central heating and there is a ready supply of hot water.

There are excellent local walks straight from the front door, including a 15-minute walk onto the Braid Hills giving panoramic views across Edinburgh towards the Firth of Forth.

Wonderful home in Edinburgh

We had a most lovely stay at this roomy well appointed home I. Edinburg. The location away from the busy city center but close to bus routes giving us quick access as we wished was perfect. We loved the beautiful garden, nature trails and horses nearby. Our host was very responsive although we didn’t need anything as the home was we prepared and included everything needed for a wonderful stay. We hope to visit again!

Good stay

Home was nice and comfortable. A car is a must as the bus is a 5 minute drive. Yet, there is free parking on the streets. There were 7 of us who stayed here andd it worked out.

Une location spacieuse au vert

De belles visites vers Glencoe et Loch Lomond, visite de monuments sur Édimbourg qui est une ville très accueillante et animée durant le festival avec des artistes fabuleux . Un séjour un peu frais au niveau des températures et une météo capricieuse. La location est spacieuse, Linda est la voisine et très gentille. Maison équipée au calme proche de la ville et accès facile avec le bus.

Would recommend!

The property owner that hosted us was excellent. We had two infants and she took time to find us a high chair and crib for one of our kids to sleep in. She was incredibly thoughtful and helpful. The property had a great country vibe but was still close enough to city centre. We loved the location and area. Highly recommend.

Christmas stay in Edinburgh

From the initial booking with Martin through to welcome on arrival with Linda it was wonderful. Super property with all of the amenities we needed to spend a lovely time with family. Spacious lounge and dining area with 3 well-proportioned bedrooms with facilities made for a home away from home feel. This house may be in Edinburgh but it is situated in the countryside with fantastic views of the city, a super place to watch the annual Hogmanay fireworks for sure. Greenfields and stabled horses are all around and access to transport is just down the single paved road. I very much recommend this property to people who appreciate quality and friendship.

My husband was running in the Edinburgh marathon and the position of the house for access to the city was perfect. The house was clean and comfortable ,with a very well equipped kitchen. The weather could not of been better we had a very relaxing stay, good walks from the house and easy walking access to the local pub. Would stay again.

Besser geht´s nicht

Lage und Ausstattung der Ferienwohnung ließen keine Wünsche offen. Stilvolle Einrichtung und die 2 Terrassen machten das ganze perfekt. Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und es war jederzeit ein Ansprechpartner erreichbar. Eine Einkaufsmöglichkeit war ca. 1,5km entfernt , ebenso die Bushaltestelle. Da wir mit dem eigenen Auto angereist waren, war das kein Problem. Die herrliche Lage innmitten von Pferdekoppeln und Golfplatz war sehr ruhig und erholsam. Sehr zu empfehlen!

Beautiful great location

This was a great place in beautiful location. Easy bus ride into Edinburgh's royal Mile. We rented a car and drove to Inverness and St. Andrews they were easy day trips and amazing drives. The area the house is breathtaking I was able to take a different route each morning on my run. The golf course is open and beautiful. The house is well equipped with everything you need including maps and suggestions for tours and local attractions. Booking was easy Martin was very helpful and responded promptly. Linda was great as well greeted us and provided lots of ideas. We were very pleased with our stay and highly recommend it for families as there is lots of space and two parks very close.

Wonderful, roomy, well equipped, lovely location

An ideal property for 4 adults and 3 children, with lots of space for running (or sitting) around. The kitchen is well equipped, if a bit small, but all other rooms are excellent. The children loved the horses in the fields and the walk to the nearest (No 11) bus stop on Frogston Road. We coped admirably without a car, only using taxis when we had luggage or it was late and booking an online supermarket delivery for groceries. Once the children had gone home, we walked into the city centre and back, via the Braid Hills, with fantastic views of Arthur's Seat and the Firth of Forth, then across the Meadows and up to the Royal Mile. The weather was cold but sunny and we really enjoyed our stay.
